The interlace polynomial q was introduced by Arratia, Bollobas, and Sorkin. It encodes many properties of the orbit of a graph under edge local complementation (ELC). The interlace polynomial Q, introduced by Aigner and van der Holst,…

The mathematical study of vortices began with Herman von Helmholtz's pioneering study in 1858. It was pursued vigorously over the next two decades, largely by British physicists and mathematicians, in two contexts: Maxwell's vortex analogy…

One of the founders of the mechanics of nonoholonomic systems is Voronec who published in 1901 a significant generalization of the Caplygin's equations, by removing some restrictive assumptions. In the frame of nonholonomic systems, the…

We investigate the quantum mechanics of the doubled torus system, introduced by Hull [1] to describe T-folds in a more geometric way. Classically, this system consists of a world-sheet Lagrangian together with some constraints, which reduce…

In this work, it is shown that the energy and momentum of electromagnetic fields created by a classical charge, whose velocity varies with time, do not form four-vector. A possible explanation for this result is that the calculation of…

We use entropy theory as a new tool for studying Lorenz-like classes of flows in any dimension. More precisely, we show that every Lorenz-like class is entropy expansive, and has positive entropy which varies continuously with vector…

In [8], P. Lecomte conjectured the existence of a natural and projectively equivariant quantization. In [1], M. Bordemann proved this existence using the framework of Thomas-Whitehead connections. In [9], we gave a new proof of the same…

As shown by Johannes Kepler in 1609, in the two-body problem, the shape of the orbit, a given ellipse, and a given non-vanishing constant angular momentum determines the motion of the planet completely. Even in the three-body problem, in…

Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity was proposed a little over a hundred years back. It remained a bedrock of twentieth century physics right up to Quantum Field Theory. However, the failure over several decades to provide a unified…
